Sarcopenia

New horizons in hospital-associated deconditioning: a global condition of body and mind.

Hospital-associated deconditioning is a broad term, which refers non-specifically to declines in any function of the body secondary to hospitalisation. Older people, particularly those living with frailty, are known to be at greatest risk. It has historically been most commonly...

Short-chain fatty acids enhance muscle mass and function through the activation of mTOR signalling pathways in sarcopenic mice.

Sarcopenia is a prevalent muscle disorder in old people leading to higher fracture rate, mortality, and other adverse clinical outcomes. Evidence indicates that short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which are beneficial gut microbial metabolites, were reduced in old people with sarcopenia....

Sucla2 Knock-Out in Skeletal Muscle Yields Mouse Model of Mitochondrial Myopathy With Muscle Type-Specific Phenotypes.

Pathogenic variants in subunits of succinyl-CoA synthetase (SCS) are associated with mitochondrial encephalomyopathy in humans. SCS catalyses the conversion of succinyl-CoA to succinate coupled with substrate-level phosphorylation of either ADP or GDP in the TCA cycle. This report presents a...

Short-Term Multicomponent Exercise Impact on Muscle Function and Structure in Hospitalized Older at Risk of Acute Sarcopenia.

Hospitalization exacerbates sarcopenia and physical dysfunction in older adults. Whether tailored inpatient exercise prevents acute sarcopenia is unknown. This study aimed to examine the effect of a multicomponent exercise programme on muscle and physical function in hospitalized older adults. We...

Integrative study of skeletal muscle mitochondrial dysfunction in a murine pancreatic cancer-induced cachexia model.

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), the most common pancreatic cancer, is a deadly cancer, often diagnosed late and resistant to current therapies. PDAC patients are frequently affected by cachexia characterized by muscle mass and strength loss (sarcopenia) contributing to patient frailty...

Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) phase angle in stroke patients: A systematic review.

Phase angle (PhA), a raw variable of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA), is an index of muscle structure and quality and might have a potential role in the evaluation of nutritional status. The aim of this systematic review was to evaluate...

Prognostic Impact and Prevalence of Cachexia in Patients With Heart Failure: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.

Cachexia, defined as the combination of weight loss, weakness, fatigue, anorexia and abnormal biochemical markers based on Evans' criteria, is known to exacerbate the prognosis of heart failure (HF) patients. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigates the prognostic impact and...

Leptin as a surrogate immune-metabolic marker to predict impact of anti-cachectic therapy: results of a prospective randomized trial in multiple solid tumors.

Leptin is a reliable predictive and surrogate marker of the efficacy of multitargeted treatment of cancer cachexia. To the best of our knowledge, no study has assessed the predictive role of biomarkers in establishing the effectiveness of anti-cachectic treatment, which...

Molecular determinants of skeletal muscle force loss in response to 5 days of dry immersion in human.

Astronauts in Earth's orbit experience microgravity, resulting in a decline of skeletal muscle mass and function. On Earth, models simulating microgravity have shown that the extent of the loss in muscle force is greater than the loss in muscle mass....

Association of Muscle Strength With All-Cause Mortality in the Oldest Old: Prospective Cohort Study From 28 Countries.

Ageing is associated with a gradual loss of muscle strength, which in the end may have consequences for survival. Whether muscle strength and mortality risk associate in a gradual or threshold-specific manner remains unclear. This study investigates the prospective association...

Body Composition and Progression of Biopsy-Proven Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease in Patients With Obesity.

Obesity is a significant risk factor for the progression of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, a convenient and efficacious non-invasive test for monitoring NAFLD progression in patients with obesity is currently lacking. This study aims to investigate the associations...

Associations of Serum Lipid Traits With Fracture and Osteoporosis: A Prospective Cohort Study From the UK Biobank.

Previous studies reveal inconsistent associations between serum lipid traits and the risks of fractures and osteoporosis in the general population. This prospective cohort study analysed data from 414 302 UK Biobank participants (223 060 women and 191 242 men, aged 37-73 years) with serum...

Prognostic Value of Systemic Inflammation, Nutritional Status and Sarcopenia in Patients With Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis.

Nutritional status, systemic inflammatory responses and muscle mass are associated with the prognosis of patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). However, the optimal biomarker for predicting prognosis remains unclear. This study aimed to identify the optimal indicators of survival among...
